Special Action Sports Event "Live Like Roner" Announced for August

Nitro Circus, Travis Pastrana and the action sports community join together to raise funds and raise the roof in Huntington Beach on August 2nd

Huntington Beach, Calif. ---The action sports community will gather at Sea Legs on the Beach at Bolsa Chica State Park near Huntington Beach, California for a fundraising event celebrating the life of world-renowned skier, skydiver and original cast member of Nitro Circus, Erik Roner who passed away in 2015 during a tragic skydiving accident at a charity event in his hometown of Lake Tahoe, leaving behind his wife and two small children.

A Night to Live Like Roner is scheduled the same week as the US Open of Surfing near Huntington Beach Pier. Celebrity athletes from around the world will be present to show their support and participate in A Night to Live Like Roner, which includes daytime entertainment and activities in signature Nitro Circus style.

The day will start with a group of industry-invited guests participating in a team challenge with mini bikes, stand-up paddle boarding races and an obstacle course. Other activities will include a sky diving exhibition, DJs, carnival games, tasty food and beverage, plus comedic performances, live music by the 80s cover band Flashback Heart Attack, and a ski and snowboard rail jam on real snow!

The event is free to the public and is supported by the non-profit Athlete Recovery Fund, a 501(c)(3). Parking fees as well as food and drink will be sold on-site. Fundraising efforts will include silent and live auctions as well as ticket sales for VIP access at Sea Legs on the Beach near the stage with reserved tables to rub shoulders with the stars of Nitro Circus, attending celebrities and other action sports stars.

Funds raised at this event will go to Erik’s family and to endow the Live Like Roner Foundation so that we may further our on-going commitment to assist other families of action sports in their greatest time of need.
